Mobile Gamma Spectrometry and Survey Units

HERMES systems are portable, easily deployable units designed to perform field measurements of gamma radiation or gamma spectrometry analysis, for applications such as radiation monitoring, geology research, laboratory analysis, environmental survey, etc.

HERMES product line includes many customisable versions:
HERMES NAI or CSI, with NaI(Tl) or CsI(Tl) detector and MCA to perform gamma spectrometry
HERMES GM or PLAS, with Geiger-Muller or plastic detector for gamma monitoring
HERMES HUB, with panel PC and software, collecting data from one or more HERMES units
The “HUB” component can also be integrated in any of the HERMES version, in order to provide an all-in-one configuration.



All available units can be used both as portable and fixed devices, and they can also be configured to be used on mobile laboratories thanks to wall-mounting plates and low voltage supply connection.
The HERMES data management and processing software provides dose rate values, nuclide identification and a heat map of the acquired data. The scan results are continuously saved into the local memory for further processing, together with GPS coordinates.

HERMES units can also be controlled through LAN or Wi-Fi (using a smartphone or tablet), thus allowing to operate remotely while the case is closed.

Configurations

Configuration Example

A representative configuration of HERMES unit is HERMES NAI, which includes:

  • NaI(Tl) 3"x3" cylindrical scintillator coupled with a SiPM
  • Compact built-in analogue and digital electronics, consisting of amplifier, shaping, comparator, ADC
    and Multichannel Analyser (MCA)
  • Tablet computer with touch-screen user interface and proprietary ELSE NUCLEAR control software for
    data elaboration and storage
  • Replaceable Li-Ion Battery, suitable for approx. 8 h operation

All mentioned components are housed in a slim rugged case designed for outdoor use (typical IP grade:
IP67, dust and water resistant), which can be easily and comfortably handled by the user.
